'THE EVENiNG STAR 'WASHINGTON, D. G- WEDNEBDAY- JANUARY 11, 1922 YOU NEVER. KNOW WHERE' A THING 18! WHY DoN'T must seek, to find a mangled man. | With windshields labeled “Safety First,” our trusty horns_.we blew, and curbed all wild desires to burst such speed laws as we knew; and ng pedestrians were hearsed updl the week ‘was through. The smiling voter went~his ways and had no broken spine; no accldent in seven days! A record truly fine; and rival towns, in stark amaze, beheld that recorq shine. - But when the Safety Week was done the boys stepped on the gas; so swiftly did the motors run they burned up all the grass; as shot from some Big Bertha gun, We saw the putos pass. Our Safety Week had strained the nerves of speed fiends and their kin; a stretch of virtue often serves to start a stretch. of ain; and cars went whoop- ing round the curves, fine cars, and cars of tin. The. coroner, on nimble feet, went questing here and there; he found a wreck in every street, and dead men everywhere; before his labors were complete he wept and tore his hair. And while he let the briny leak, he said, “My job's a frost; it’s bad enough when peo- ple seek the speed cops to exhaust, but when we've had a Safety Week, my landmarks all are lost.” (Copyright) ' WALT MASON. PROPOSES GASOLINE TAX TO PAY EX-SERVICE MEN Representative Bacharach Favors Levy of Three Cents a Gallon for Adjusted Compensation. Represéntative Bacharach of New Jersey, a member of the ways and means committee, has introduced a new bill providing for raising reve- nue necessary to carry out adjusted compensation for those who had par- ticipated in the world war. ! Briefly, the Bacharach bill would impose a tax of 3 cents per.gallon on - sales and deliveries by manufacturers| or producers of gasoline, payable and ' collected at the source of production.' His . bill" proposes that this tax shall’ become effective immediately on pas- sage of the bill and shall remain in effect until repealed. epresentative Bacharach said that the tax of 3 cents a gallon on gas- oline will yield between $240,000,000 and $250,000,000 a year, and will not cost the government an extra dollar' to collect. “The important thing that con- cerns Congress in the enactment of this legislation is the finding of the; means of raising necessary revenue,” sald Representative Bacharach. Representative Bacharach said his bill was predicated on the assumption } that two-thirds of the ex-service men : would accept the insurance feature| of the bill and that he believes the: gasoline tax in ten years' time will have produced sufficient revenue to take care of all cash payments, to meet all policies falling due by rea-; son of death in the interim and to: pay in'full such policies as run the. full twenty years to maturity. —_— Weadnehes From SHght.

The year 1921 was “one of prostra- tion for the coal and coke industries,” the United States geological survey sald in its weekly report on " cont production. “Figures of hnnl‘m Bound 1ike_thoseof an earlier day. | To match the 407,000,000 tons of soft coal produced, one must g0 back ten yyears. To match the 26,000,000 tons of coke, he must go back seventeen; years. But those tonnage compari- sons are not enough, for they ignore. |the normal increase from Year to! {year. To match the completeness of the depression of 1921 one must go back to 18! | Anthracite coal alone stands as an ' exception to this statement, the sur-! vey asserted. Until late November’ the hard coal mines continued in° active operation, and the total out- put for 1921 fell not far behind the: two years just preceding. ODERED HERE FOB. DUTY.
